The controversial rapper and Trump supporter made it clear she's regretting her vote in a series of tweets.

Controversial rapper Azealia Banks has buyer's remorse, making it clear she regrets her vote for President Donald Trump in a series of tweets, describing him as an "absolute disaster" who exhibits "crazy old white man anger."

Banks, who had previously attended a Trump rally and initially declared support for then-Vice President Kamala Harris—citing Elon Musk’s involvement in the Trump campaign as a dealbreaker—ultimately reversed course.


Despite writing that Musk “belongs nowhere near American politics. The End,” she later cast her vote for Trump and posted a photo of her completed ballot online.

But now, amid global trade wars, attacks against transgender people, the deportations of thousands of undocumented immigrants, Signalgate, the ongoing scandal involving a man trapped in a deadly El Salvador prison due to an "administrative error," defiance of the Supreme Court—among a host of other issues—it seems Banks isn't too happy with herself, or other Trump supporters.

She wrote:

"Ok I think it's time everyone who voted for Trump admit that we made a f**king mess. Like this is an absolute disaster."
"He's so petty and vindictive rn. Tbh, rightfully so, but not when the wellbeing and livelihood of billions of people - damn near the entire world lay in your hands. Someone needs to get him a cute little lorazepam rx and a high grade ashwaganda supplement because it can't happen like this."
"Nobody on Earth is afraid of crazy old white man anger. Old white men need to reinvent the archetype because it’s too predictable. Like China is just DUNKING on everyone right now.”

While people didn't necessarily disagree, many felt these statements were a little too late for the MAGA rapper and known contrarian.



While it's still unclear what spurred Banks to write the tweets, she can pretty much take her pick of any of the scandals of the last few weeks.

Downey Jr. roasted his longtime co-star in spectacular fashion while presenting her with The Hollywood Reporter’s Sherry Lansing Leadership Award, a moment that played less like a formal tribute and more like Tony Stark gently ribbing Pepper for forgetting who Spider-Man is.

Gavin Newsom Just Hilariously Trolled President Trump's New 'Walk Of Fame' With A Brutal One Of His Own

California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked President Donald Trump by riffing off the presidential "Walk of Fame" Trump unveiled in the White House back in September, gifting us the "Presidential Walk of Fatigue" instead.

In September, Trump's assistant Margo Martin shared a video of a hallway filled with the portraits of former U.S. presidents. Martin announced that "The Presidential Walk of Fame has arrived on the West Wing Colonnade," and the video she shared pans over multiple portraits of former presidents before lingering on an image of Biden's autopen signature.

Fulnecky's instructor Mel Curth, a transgender woman, assigned her students a 650-word essay about how gender stereotypes impact societal expectations of individuals. Fulnecky instead wrote about what the Bible says about "traditional gender roles," arguing that to refer to them as "stereotypes" is "demonic."
